Back at Base Camp!

The team made their way down the front (east) side of Crosson yesterday and then hiked across the Kahiltna Glacier and up the seemingly never-ending rise in the Southeast Fork called Heartbreak Hill.

They were pretty tuckered, but nestled in at Base Camp, and are hoping to fly out today. The weather looks like it might keep them on the glacier for another day, but we are dealing with the Alaska Range, so all bets are off, and my fingers are crossed that they will load up a plane and be eating steaks at the West Rib Restaurant this afternoon.

We'll post photos after they get back and the guides will post their re-caps of the expedition, so please stay tuned!
